Key wordsConfucian thoughts; Humanist; Golden Mean; Governing by non interferenceConfucian thought refers to the thinking of the Confucian school of thought, which was founded by Confucius in the late Spring and Autumn period after the Chinese civilization had gone through the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties for thousands of years. Confucianism, founded by Confucius, is a complete system of thought that summarizes, generalizes and inherits the traditional cultures of Xia, Shang and Zhou, based on which the traditional culture of Zunzun and Kissing was formed. Confucianism attaches great importance to the position of people in the management process, and it can be said that the management of people and the people who carry out the management are the core of Confucian theory. Management is only possible with human beings. This viewpoint is inseparable from the philosophy of Confucianism, which can be reflected in a Confucian saying - "The nature of heaven and earth is noble", so the idea of being noble is one of the fundamental concepts of Confucianism. In the view of Confucianism, only human beings are the most valuable in heaven and earth, and they are the spirit of all things. In the view of Confucianism, all management activities are centered on governing people. We all think that modern human resource management originated from the West, but the fact is that it is the essence of ancient Chinese culture, Confucianism has long elaborated the viewpoint of "people-oriented", and although Confucianism has not mentioned human resource management, it has mentioned a lot of ways to treat people, in which the treatment refers to the management. This article is to try our best to summarize how to use the essence of Confucianism to carry out human resource management. First of all, the most important thing is that "people are precious": the core content of Confucianism, "cultivate oneself to be at peace with others", "people can propagate the Way", "people of benevolence love others", "harmony", and "humanism", "humanism", "humanism", "humanism", "humanism", "humanism", and "humanism". The core elements of Confucianism, such as "cultivate oneself to be at peace with others", "people can promote the Way", "people of benevolence love others", "harmony is precious", etc., all reflect the concern for human beings. Confucianism advocates that "all things are born, and all people are precious", "the people are the most important thing, the gods of earth and grain are the second, and the ruler is the least important thing", and that the governance of the country should be "based on the wealth of the people", and "the people are the foundation of the state, the foundation of the state is the people". The people are the foundation of the state, the foundation is solid, and the state is peaceful". The same means that the people is the root of the country, only the root is solid, the country can be peaceful. Currently, the Party Central Committee advocates the establishment of a harmonious society, also in this way. As a unit, and the reason is similar, only the talent is fundamental, talent stability, the unit can develop. As personnel cadres should first have a deep understanding of the importance of human resources, all personnel management is centered around people to start, a unit is mainly supported by people, so we must pay attention to talent, management of talent, so that people make the best use of their talents, which is the core of human resources management. The second management of talent to use the middle way, what is the middle way: Confucius said: "not bias is said to be in; not easy is said to be mediocre. The center, the world's right way. Mediocrity, the world's theorem. Happiness, anger, sadness, and joy are not yet expressed in the middle. When they are all in harmony, they are said to be in harmony. The center is the foundation of the world. Harmony is the world's greatest way." In other words, not being biased is neutral, and not changing the nature of things (or theorems) is mediocrity. It is "to do as one pleases" and "not to go beyond the limits". This is the essence of the "middle ground". We in the process of personnel management to achieve impartiality, embodied in the daily work, how to apply the mastery of the country's relevant personnel policy, for the people to do things, to do the "middle of the road". At the same time to do, not to the person, according to the talents of their own characteristics of their management, people and posts to match, and make the right guidance, so that the talents continue to make progress, the middle way through the human resources management at all times, from the recruitment, deployment to appointment, performance appraisal, payroll management, etc., are to be impartial. 1 to different people to have different management methods "Ziji Tongjian" said: "talent and virtue full exhaustion, known as the saints; talent and virtue exhaustion; known as the fools; virtue over the talent, known as the gentleman; talent over the virtue known as the villain. Where the art of taking people, if not the saints and gentlemen with it, rather than get a small person, not as good as a fool. Why? Although the fool wants to be bad, the wisdom can not week, the force can not win; arm of the milk dog, although want to wrestle people, people get and control. The small man is wise enough to speed between, brave enough to determine its violence, is a tiger and its wings also, its harm is not too big!" That is to say, a first-class talent, both moral and talent, second-class talent has moral without talent, third-class talent without moral without talent, fourth-class talent has talent without moral. Therefore, it is necessary to use people's strengths and avoid people's weaknesses. 2 Employing people with virtue and talent to help each other Confucianism first "virtue first", taking into account the talent, human resource management should also do this, any person who only has the ability, but no virtue, there is no moral constraints, such a person can be used by the unit, but it is absolutely not the first to promote the lack of virtue of the person as mentioned above. "Virtue over talent is called the little man". A unit to achieve sustainable development, it is necessary to "virtue first", only with both virtue and talent, it is possible to do so that he is dedicated to the unit, in order to harmonize the development of both. 3 Drawing on the ancient experience of "Virtue and Punishment", pay attention to feelings, righteousness, profit combined with emotional incentives The human psychology is composed of "knowledge, feelings and intentions" in different proportions to form a structure, thousands of years of precipitation makes the Chinese people formed the main body of the psychological characteristics of the emotion, the emotion in the maintenance of the harmony of the Chinese ethical society, and the Chinese people's psychological characteristics. Emotions play an important role in maintaining the harmony of Chinese ethical society, therefore, we must pay attention to emotional incentives when designing incentives. The ancient idea of "virtue and punishment" is still applicable in today's enterprises, but it needs to be creatively transformed. In personnel management, in order to retain talent, with good talent, the use of the incentive policy should be integrated into the rationale, "sincerity and sincerity", but also consistent with the words and deeds, in the "sincerity" on the word work. In order to give full play to the role of talent, it must be done so that the talent y appreciate the unit's incentive policy. 4 master and different communication strategy is to complete the task to fulfill the duties of the necessary ability to cooperate with the need to communicate, to deal with conflicts need to communicate, all aspects are inseparable from the communication. The philosophy of mediocrity is the core idea of traditional Chinese culture, which emphasizes "noble and". Harmony and difference is a choice of artistic communication strategy, harmony and difference means to seek common ground while reserving differences, means to complement each other's strengths and weaknesses, means to hold a tolerant attitude at all times and in all places. In the cooperation to take *** win instead of suppressing the idea of promoting each other. The third is the spirit of integrity, integrity-based. This is the personnel cadres of their own quality requirements, only personnel cadres of their own high moral character, adhere to professional ethics, always reflecting the clean people, hard work, the strict implementation of the provisions of the party's clean government construction, truly immaculate, two-sleeved, cleanliness, clean government and honesty. Love for the motherland, support for the Chinese **** production party, in order to achieve moral conviction, in order to influence other workers. Personnel department is the competent authority for recruitment, workers into the threshold of the unit, so this personnel cadres on behalf of a unit of the initial image, people gathered in the class, a vastly positive personnel cadres can attract more moral and talented people, so as to do the gathering of righteousness, so as to do the unit's righteousness, so that the unit can be endless, sustained development. The fourth is to "cultivate oneself" and "unify the family", "ruling the country and leveling the world". First of all, "cultivate oneself" is the starting point and foundation of management. Without "cultivation of the body", "family" and "rule the country and the world" can not be talked about. The main point here is the importance of personal moral cultivation and how to cultivate. At the same time, this is also the requirements of human resources management, is the requirements of the staff, the personnel department requires employees to these aspects of unfavorable, in order to achieve the staff and the unit **** win situation. In addition, combined with the "three principles" and Confucius and Mencius and other Confucian masters in this regard, "cultivate one's moral character" actually contains three layers of meaning: (1) emphasize the importance of personal moral cultivation. University" stipulates: "the so-called Qi family in the repair of his body, the people of its dear and open up, of its cheap and evil and open up, of its fear and respect and open up, of its grief and reserve and open up, of its pride and inertia and open up, so the good and know its evil, evil and know the beauty of the world, the world is rarely seen! The general idea: the reason why it is said that the good management of the family and the family to cultivate themselves, because people for their own dear people will have a preference; for their own disgust will have a preference for hate; for their own fear of people will have a bias; for their own sympathy for people will have a bias; for their own contempt for people will have prejudice. Therefore, few people can love someone and see the shortcomings of that person, hate someone and see the advantages of that person, in fact, that is, the halo effect on the psychology, so that is in the work of human resources management to avoid some of the psychological stereotypes, can not use some of their own psychological reasons and influence the recruitment, assessment and other results of the work. (2) It is to "unify the family, rule the country and pacify the world". This is the purpose of "cultivating one's moral character". The University regards the family as the foundation of the nation, and considers family morality to be the foundation of national security and social morality. It clearly stipulates that "filial piety is to serve the king, brotherhood is to serve the elders, and charity is to make the people happy", and also says that filial piety, fraternal duty and charity "are the laws of fathers, sons and brothers and the laws of the people afterward", and therefore "if a family is benevolent, a country will prosper; if a family is lenient, a country will prosper; if a family is generous, a country will prosper; if a family is generous, a country will prosper; if a family is generous, a country will prosper". If a family is benevolent, a country will be benevolent", which means: filial piety to parents can be used to serve the ruler; respect to brothers can be used to serve the governor; love to children can be used to rule the people. If a family is kind and loving, a country will be kind and loving; if a family is courteous and generous, a country will be courteous and generous. This is "a family is united and then the country is ruled". From this point of view, human resources management should focus on the family as the cornerstone, many units are now also set up kindergartens, the reason is that only when people do not have family worries, in order to better contribute to the unit, the unit to do an organization also need to be benevolent, respect for the elderly and love for the young, so that not only for the purpose of the development of the people and the family, but also for the development of the organization. (3) Teamwork. The West emphasizes the individual's own value, personality and freedom. Confucianism, on the other hand, advocates "cultivating one's moral character, keeping the family in order, ruling the country and leveling the world", uniting the individual, the family, the country and the world, establishing the value of the individual in society as a whole, emphasizing the cultivation of the individual's sense of mission to society and the country, and taking the world as one's own mission, "the world is not one person's world, it is the world of all the people in the world. The world is not the world of one person, but the world of all people. The world is not one's world, but the world's people's world." "The rise and fall of the nation is the responsibility of every man," advocating the pursuit of the noble value of life, "the world's worries before the world, after the world's happiness and joy". On the other hand, the advocates of "two people with one heart, its benefits break gold", "gentleman together but different, small man with but not", advocating team unity and collaboration. Human resource management needs to emphasize the meaning of the team, human resource management is through the management of individuals to achieve organizational performance enhancement, so more need for team consciousness. Fifth: to rule by doing nothing, Confucianism advocates positive entry into the world, with "benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith" as the core values, with morality and ethics as the core ideas, advocating the rule of the world by virtue, and convince people by virtue, Confucius believes that the ancient sage king Shun is the model of ruling by doing nothing: "To rule by doing nothing, its Shun is also with. What did he do? It is just to respect oneself and face the south." The idea of ruling by virtue itself reflects the Confucian idea of "ruling by doing nothing". The highest state of management is to "rule by doing nothing", which means to consciously know what not to do in order to do something. The more we discard bad behavior, the closer we get to success. From the "no defects management" pioneered by the American Martin Company in 1962 to the "zero defects management" practiced by many companies nowadays, it is actually a management concept to achieve the goal of doing nothing. Haier's transition from OEC management to SUB (Strategic Unit of Innovation) is also a transition from digital management to governance by doing nothing. Confucianism emphasizes that human resource management should focus on the realization of human self-management, focusing on human self-restraint, self-cultivation, through a high degree of self-discipline to adapt to nature, which is the essence of Confucianism to govern people. Modern human resource management has entered the development concept of big talent, that is, abandon the professional and other external conditions of constraints, social **** with the development and utilization of human resources, the management of people at this time more dependent on the talent itself self-management. In today's highly developed economy, there is a greater need to manage people's spiritual thinking, and Confucian culture is undoubtedly a profound resource that can be utilized. Through the in-depth exploration of Confucianism, we will get more essence of human resource management.
